100% ! You can tell by the carbon fairings if not the fact it sez it. i was reffering to the shape not the size so much. Was so close to owning a 2006 999s . ive not ridden a 749 But have raced a 748 s and they are super fun bikes with great bits. Just get slayed down the straights .

This is one of the few truly “classic” GP tracks left on the calendar... and come to think of it, there really aren´t too many of those left, are there (downsized Assen, though in a way still great, somehow doesn´t count for me)?

-Mugello

-Phillip Island

-Laguna Seca (that sadly will be gone)

-Brno

-Jerez

-Catalunya (I guess you could count it in nowadays)

PI, with its ocean views, is probably the most spectacular of all to view on the telly (and I can imagine it will be even more so live – I´ve been to Melbourne, but sadly I couldn´t arrange to visit the track!)... Mugello and Laguna also work very well for me on the TV, and those tracks I have also visited myself.

Sure is a great track and unforgettable to go to and watch the real racers show us how it's done! i 'll never ever forget the first time i arrived at Phillip Island . We just rode down from Brisbane leaft on Monday morning and arrived Friday in the middle of practice for the 500's and first motogp bikes , i looked left over at turn 12 and could'nt believe how much speed these loonies were carrying and how they did'nt for a split second back off the gas thru the gears it was so loud and fast it just shook my whole surroundings. I could'nt wait to get inside!
I did'nt sleep that night AT ALL, watched the sun come up and i was totally in this fuel burning speed hungry freespirted experience.There was no agro no women ..oh.. only 2 before race day and one was with us for their hoonyemoon. Thats changed a bit!

If your at the track, Doohan crnr is mind warping when you stand as close to the fence as you can on the apex. Even more demanding of the peanut when riding it.
